    'Always Wanted To Win A Tournament When Magnus Is Playing': Praggnanandhaa After Historic Norway Chess Triumph

    By IANS News June 06, 2026 • 18:44 PM View: 119
    World Champion Gukesh Dommaraju: For years, Rameshbabu Praggnanandhaa watched Magnus Carlsen dominate world chess. This week, the Indian Grandmaster achieved something he had long aspired to do- win a major tournament with the Norwegian legend in the field.

    Praggnanandhaa scripted history by becoming the first Indian to claim the prestigious Norway Chess title, completing a remarkable turnaround after finding himself at the bottom of the standings after six rounds. In an exclusive interaction with IANS, the 20-year-old reflected on his comeback, victories over elite opponents, handling pressure, and the lessons he took away from the biggest title of his career.

    While his wins over Carlsen grabbed headlines, Praggnanandhaa said the losses against the World No. 1 have been equally valuable in shaping him as a player.
